Jump Start

Imagine you're a car battery and it’s the coldest of winter mornings. Despite your best efforts, the car just won't start (yes, I'm stretching the metaphor here). Do you ever have a day when you feel as if you're dragging the entire day and everything seems to require extra effort, even simple tasks? We all suffer from this from time to time, but what can you do about it? The answer is to "jump start" your day. Imagine the one thing that will "charge" you to want to move, and then do it. Yes, you may be late for work, you may not even make it in or you may have to delay other things. But since you're already dragging, does it really matter? For some it might be a brisk walk, or a warm bath. Whatever "IT" is, do "IT". Now, if your battery is drained more days than it's charged, that's another issue all together and you'll need to take a deeper look into why you're feeling that way. For now, "CHARGE IT".

About Me

I am Dr. Darnita L. Payden, Executive Director/Owner of Dr. DClutter™ Life Management, a division of PreciousOnes™ LLC. I have a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology and over 20 years of experience working to help clients discover their strengths and talents. Having worked as a therapist, college professor, grief specialist and trainer, I have encountered in my journey many of the issues my clients may face. I have a sincere desire to help you find clarity, organization and independence in your life and environments. I know that life can be hectic, but I desire to help my clients bring as much order, peace and enjoyment back into their lives as is possible. What separates me from the norm? I focus on the client from a holistic perspective. I realize that most people desire a functional and an organized life, but may simply need support, understanding and information about why they have the habits or tendencies that have led to disorganization. I do not perform “quick fixes” or provide “one-size-fits-all” guidance, but I strive to provide strategies to my clients that will be life changing and useful for a lifetime. Dr. DClutter™ is a name well earned!!
